The March, également connue sous le nom de The March to Washington, est un film documentaire de 1964 de James Blue sur la marche des droits civiques de 1963 à Washington. Il a été réalisé pour l'unité Motion Picture Service de l'Agence d'information des États-Unis pour une utilisation en dehors des États-Unis - la loi Smith-Mundt de 1948 empêchait les films de l'USIA d'être diffusés à l'échelle nationale sans une loi spéciale du Congrès. En 1990, le Congrès a autorisé la distribution de ces films aux États-Unis douze ans après leur sortie initiale. En 2008, le film a été sélectionné pour être conservé dans le National Film Registry des États-Unis par la Bibliothèque du Congrès comme étant "culturellement, historiquement ou esthétiquement significatif".
